20:08.49flyback:P
20:27.10prpplagueflyback: cute hack, wrong channel for it though
20:30.42flybackwell actually not entirely
20:30.48flybacksince you guys have to deal with level conversion also
20:30.56flybackmy question is about 74245 :P
20:31.13flybackif I want to make this device be able to handle like the +3.3 on the juicebox
20:31.28flybackwhat family of 245 do I need and what's a good guide to hooking it up
20:31.46flybackjust let me back into #edev already
20:31.49flybacka lot has changed
20:31.51flyback:p
20:32.11flybackhell i'll give you my home phone # as collateral
20:33.07flybackalso one quick non channel related question then I am going back to bed
20:33.27flybackhave you heared of or noticed any issues with the juicebox's sd reader and linux or in general like data loss etc
20:33.31flybackthx
20:34.43prpplagueflyback: yea, the usb sd/mmc card reader shipped with the JB is terrible
20:34.49flybackthank you so much
20:35.02flybackfor once I'm not crazy
20:35.03prpplagueflyback: more than 1/2 of the ones i got have failed
20:35.14flybackyeah I thought i was losing it with some palm linux issues
20:35.23flybacknow I suspect that little reader I use to load the cards was eating shit
20:35.25prpplaguei used them for parts
20:35.44flybackwell readers are cheap so I will order some and use something else for now
20:35.45flybackthx bud
20:35.50prpplaguenp
20:37.09flybackman cf got so cheap and so did the cf to ide adaptors
20:37.24flybacklike a bunch of machines I am using like for hd testing etc I am going to rip off all the drives now
20:37.28flyback2 gig like $13
20:37.57flybackother than worrying about write cycle life it's like the hell with dealing with a disk for stuff that doesn't care :P
20:37.59flybackanyways bbl
20:41.09prpplagueflyback: yea cf is dying as far as embedded
20:41.14flybackoh?
20:41.15flybackwhy?
20:41.16prpplagueflyback: in favor of spi and sdio
20:41.17flybacksize>
20:41.20flybackick
20:41.31flybackwell if they open up more of the spec I guess that's ok
20:41.34prpplagueflyback: requires too many control lines to implement
20:41.46prpplagueflyback: all thats needed for the spec is already open
20:41.54flybackoh cool then
20:42.01prpplagueflyback: its the device manufacturers that aren't releasing their specs
20:42.05flybackno chance of a sata cf you think?
20:42.14prpplagueflyback: i.e. similiar to the early days of pcmcica
20:42.24prpplaguepcmcia
20:42.37prpplagueflyback: doubt it
20:43.04flybackI thought about something isn't using a reader on sm or xd dangerous?
20:43.19flybackfor the data
20:43.26*** part/#openjtag ka6sox (n=ka6sox@nslu2-linux/ka6sox)
20:43.28prpplagueflyback: ??
20:43.57flybackwell since the host has to do all the sector management etc, couldn't you have a camera say write the data in a non standard way that the reader might corrupt
20:44.44flybacknm not important
20:44.56flybackI am just glad you gave me the info I needed on those damn readers
20:47.30prpplagueflyback: yea, thats true of anything though
20:47.48prpplagueflyback: all the devices you use a storage media on have to play by the same rules
20:48.04flybackyeah but at least with other formats there is a controller always presenting a standard interface at least in theroy
20:48.17flybackso it could have hamster wheels in the background storing 0's or 1's it wouldn't matter
20:50.01prpplagueflyback: ??
20:50.13prpplagueflyback: sm and xd also have controllers
20:50.17flybackuh
20:50.20flybacksince when
20:50.27flybackthey are just raw nand
20:50.38prpplagueflyback: they are, but the devices that use them have controllers
20:50.43prpplagueflyback: thats the difference
20:50.58prpplagueflyback: controller is in the device not in the media
20:50.59flybackyeah but I am saying if you switch between devices you might have a chance of it switching from english to japanse
20:51.13prpplagueflyback: doesn't work that way
20:51.17flybackoh?
20:51.22flybackI stand corrected then :)
20:51.36flybackI still rather trust a dedicated controller in the package :P
20:51.48flybackpalm linux is coming along nicely btw I have it on my t5
20:51.51flyback:)
20:51.58flybackyou should hang in #hackndev sometime
20:52.04flybackmarex is a prick but he knows his stuff
20:53.04flybackI suspect part of the problem is he knows the english language but not all the grammer
20:53.12flybackso he either sounds like a prick or he takes stuff wrong
20:54.12prpplagueyea, i tried hanging in hackndev, but the level of maturity there was kinda low
20:54.26flybackooo these lead acid camcorder batteries from my aunt's old camcorder that blew it's battery circuitry, the old one was 10v 850ma and it's 5 flat ziplock style lead acid batteries 2volts 850 each this new one are 2000ma packs :P
20:54.41flybackthese might be useful since lead acid is fairly rugged :P
21:02.43prpplagueflyback: yea i stictly use lithium ion these days since they are cheap
21:03.38flybackI have like 60+ lithium cells from old laptop batteries and several of them are still good
21:03.42flybackyes I know those aren't ion
21:03.51flybackI am not ready to go with lithium yet too much chance of blowing a kids head off
21:03.51flyback:P
21:03.56flybacktill I get more skilled
21:04.09flybackhey one thing did you hear about the dewalt hack
21:04.10flybackdude
21:04.15flybackyou need this hang on
21:04.18flybackthey are all over ebay now
21:04.29*** join/#openjtag ka6sox (n=ka6sox@nslu2-linux/ka6sox)
21:04.35flybackhttp://www.slkelectronics.com/DeWalt/packs.htm
21:04.47flybackthese new super cells lithium cells you can treat like nicd
21:05.05flybackproblem is they are $100/sample but if you buy a drill pack that happens ot use them - around $9/cell
21:05.45flybacktheir ma isn't that high only 2300ma but you can like 5c+ them without them blowing up
21:05.55flybackyou can keep charging them and they will just act like caps and stop accepting charge
21:06.10flybackanyways out for real this time :P
21:19.54prpplagueyea i saw that on hackaday
21:20.06prpplaguei prefer units with 18650 cells in them though
21:20.23prpplagueyou can get a 1800mAh 18650 pretty easy these days
